We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. I would recommend anyone visiting Waterford city to stay here; it's in an excellent location, they provide delicious pub food, and the staff are so helpful. We booked last-minute, and the man who checked us in was fantastic. We had a baby with us, so he left us check in early. The rooms were also pristine, and they provided a very comfortable travel cot for our baby.

Guest reviews
Dooley's Hotel averages 4.2 out of 5 across 1,695 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
Everything was just great! From meeting guests in the lobby to the moment of check-out. Breakfast is hot and delicious, the staff greets you warmly and welcomingly both in the restaurant and at the reception. The bed is very comfortable and snow-white, pleasantly smelling bed linen, enough towels in the bathroom. We rested and really slept off after a busy day.
My Daughter Jenna and I stayed here one night and I can't praise this hotel enough. Absolutely spotlessly clean, beds so comfortable. The staff really friendly and attentive. The Breakfast was the best I've had in a long time. The price was fantastic and I will definitely be back in the future.
